I just got back in from picking up a rather large collection and wanted to share a few that were in it. Some are new to me and wanted your opinions. Thanks

THis one is a HC Sangamo Extra 6 positions

Here is a 18s 23j Veritas WI

Look at this dial with the jewel in the lantern

Peoria movement on the about dial and in a 14K box hinge HC

Check out this grade 162 it is in a fancy 14K HC

Here is a grade 351 in a 14K case

One I cant find much info on

Well I will not hog up all the space but wanted to share a few of the beauties.

you did good Robert

I'll take the Sangamo and the Peoria

Beautiful watches Rob, thanks for sharing, will you be selling any?

Charlie don't be starting anything on these

Robert, The Elgin grade 348 is the HC version of the OF grade 349. The grade 349 met RR standards when it was built. I'm sure the 348 met these same standards and would have still been accepted by many railroads at the time it was built.

Wow Rob nice watches the 23 jewel lord elgin is the one i want,, Remember i will be having another Brithday this year

I've been buying Sangamo's recently, so I'll take the HC!

Rob,
Please give the 185 members the first chance at these super watches/////

Rob:
GREAT collection of watches! Please let us know if you sell any!
Cheers!
Joel

Here is and interesting BS in gorgeous 14k HC

These poor watches probably feel good to get out and breathe and tick a little after 25 years of confinement of a safe.

Look at this case

Ok one more picked up a few of these

Question am I reading it wrong or is this suppose to be a guilt movement according to serial number

add the early bunn, the interstate, and the HC 23j to my list.

The early bunn is listed as gilt finish. They certainly look nickel. Don't remember seeing a Bunn with that damaskeen pattern ... but I haven't seen them all. love the balance cock engraving.

Hi Robert,

In my opinion your Bunn Ser# 50138 is a a very
interesting find. Thanks for showing and
sharing the illustration.

I have a few questions I am hoping you
can answer and would appreciate any comments.

(1) can you tell if the watch has a male
winding arbor and is equipped with a short pivited setting lever?

(2) Can tell if the bridge,train , balance, barrel , and pillar plates are solid nickel
or nickel plated?

Thanks again for sharing your interesting find

Bernie Levine
(3) Could you describe the dial if it has one.

Alright Rob, I missed that 992b while you were out messing around today. When are we going to see that Lord Elgin?

Rob.

Thanks for posting these outstanding pieces! Some of us out here in the hinterlands rarely get an opportunity to see such unique pieces.

Also appreciate your always congenial manner of posting. Hope I get the opportunity to meet you one of these days.

Ted,
Rob is one of the good guys/////

Rob

I really like the choo choo dial on your Peoria, especially the jewel in the headlight.

Larry

Two questions; Can you show a picture of the Veritas dial please?
When and where are you planning to offer these up to us addicts for sale?

18s veritas front

Dial on IC has some damage at bottom
Ok I am getting flooded with emails I guess I should not have listed all these. WOW

Man Robert, you're a popular guy

Larry

I appologize for sounding short and I always appreciate any input on watches as you all are very very helpful. I guess I just got overwhelmed with emails wanting to sell. Again I had it on my heart to appologize to all my friends here I always appreciate any input and that is the reason why I list them here. Thanks again

Hey Rob,
I don't think you have anything to feel badly about, you answered my email promtly and your comments were very honest. They are your watches and if you decide to keep them or sell them that is up to you. Best of luck in your decision.
